From the little information you've provided, what you're doing sounds fine. Like you, I know this works. I use Cygwin's ssh/sshd and it's port- forwarding with VNC (Tight and "normal") all the time and it works fine (I'm using it now to type this on my machine at home while I'm at work). I don't use putty though. However, the cause of your problem is not obvious. You'll need to debug it further. Sorry. >P.S. Sorry for my english, I'm italian Your English is fine. It's certainly better than my Italian! :-) -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
